Our transition to generic insipid idol crap appears complete.

Impressions:

This show's decline continues thanks in large part to a particularly godawful looking extended CGI dance affair that it tried to use as a remix moment of triumph. You see, Whose-Her-Face pulled herself together FOR FRIENDSHIP AND IDOLNESS or whatever, so everyone celebrated and hugs for all. But the other one was still angsty, because of her PTSD, then she pulled herself together FOR FRIENDSHIP AND IDOLNESS or whatever. And that was literally the whole thing. I'm sad, oh wait, now I'm not. Yay idols! Now here's some truly godawful CGI from the second graders. Hope you enjoy it!

A two episode 'arc' where both of them just wallowed in their own self pity until they decided to stop wallowing. Not predicated on anything in particular. Not resolved by anybody doing a damn thing. Just an excuse for some melodramatic backstory spewed out that it couldn't even decide whether or not it was supposed to be a joke. This episode barely even tried to pretend like it was a comedy either. A couple recycled sight gags are all you're getting.

I have nothing more to say about this show, except that the idol girl’s boring “you’re not taking idoling serious” angst reminds me of Marina in the Idol season of Milky Holmes, who derailed an entire episode moping over the fact that Milky Holmes weren’t serious about their job, and idols, I guess? It was especially funny because the only reason people were watching the show was for Milky Holmes being back to being ridiculous.

At the end of the episode she just… got over it, because Milky Holmes didn’t like, change their behavior or anything.
